and Howell will serve as the exclusive distributor of Otto Künnecke systems in the United States and Canada.

“This exciting partnership allows both companies to achieve our mutual goals of delivering the very best technology,
expertise and service to the market. More importantly, our customers now have access to the widest range of
card mailing and secure ID solutions available today,” stated Les Stern, Bell and Howell’s
President and CEO. “Our

and leadership in this important market makes them the perfect partner."

“I am very excited to be partnered with Bell and Howell. With their outstanding service organization and their

owner and CEO of Otto Künnecke. “Both companies are totally focused on providing solutions and support that
exceed our customers’ needs.”

Bell and Howell will sell and service the full line of Otto Künnecke’s Card Attachment Secure Systems (CASS),
PIN-mailing, secure ID packaging solutions, inspection systems and software. All are engineered to Otto
Künnecke’s exacting standards, providing customers with the utmost ease of operation, reliability and
scalability.

The Otto Künnecke card systems will be offered immediately through Bell and Howell in North America, and
the new CASSilo system will be featured in the Bell and Howell booth #2610 at GRAPH EXPO, Oct. 7 through Oct.
10 in Chicago.

The card system portfolio includes the following solutions:

The CASSera system is designed specifically for environments where lower volume processing is needed,
and can also be used as a back-up machine for existing card attachment systems. As the smallest version of
the CASS series, it has a compact design and represents the first heavy-duty 24/7 industrial mailing machine
in its class. With a throughput of up to 2,000 cards per hour, it is ideal for small to medium-sized
applications.

The new CASSilo solution is designed to meet the card-processing needs of companies that process
mid-range volumes. It is engineered to run reliably in a 24/7 environment, supports a wide variety of data
inputs, and reaches a throughput of up to 3,000 cards per hour. The CASSilo can also encode cards with unique
customer information.

The CASS C6000 is designed for organizations that require absolute flexibility and uncompromising
quality. The CASS C6000 is ideal in environments where high-volume, 24/7 processing is required, or where
a large number of small job sizes are processed. The CASS C6000 offers amazing versatility, which allows for
the operation of the system without the card channel as a single- or multiple-channel inserting system. This
powerful system runs at up to 6,000 cards per hour, and offers the modularity to grow with your operations.
